Resumen de Un’alleanza matrimoniale mancata. Diplomazia e politica estera tra Francia e Savoia agli inizi del Seicento

Frédéric Ieva

• This essay reconstructs the failed negotiations between Piedmont and France for a marriage between Elisabeth of France and Victor Amadeus, Prince of Piedmont. After the death of Henry IV and the regency of Marie de’ Medici, French foreign policy changed tack and negotiations were opened for a double Franco-Spanish marriage. These ended successfully with a wedding held in Bordeaux in 1615.
